Cavity wall insulation is meant to keep your home warm. When it has been poorly or wrongly fitted, it does the opposite, bridging the gap and letting damp and condensation through to your inside walls. In that situation it usually has to come out. It is a frustrating expense for people who had it installed in good faith to save money, which is why we handle the whole thing properly and use the very latest extraction technology.
What we remove
- Expanded polystyrene beads
- Loose and bonded urea-formaldehyde insulation
- Rockwool mineral fibre
- Whitewool glass mineral fibre
How the extraction works
The redundant insulation is drawn out with an industrial vacuum machine, with the nozzle positioned using the original drilling pattern. We start at the base of the property and work up the pattern, checking as we go that the entire cavity is clear. Every bit of waste is bagged during extraction, so nothing is left behind in the wall or on your property.
